Cheap Islands That Left Me Speechless 🏝️

Need a break but don’t want to break the bank? These are all the islands I’ve visited either for a few hours or a whole day trip! I had a blast visiting each one, just note that some locations do include food, transportation, shops and/or activities while others charge extra!

🏝️ San Blas ($75) – Located in Panama, spend the day visiting multiple islands, snorkel and see starfish! ($55 more for Pickup/Dropoff driver from Panama City, optional & cash only)

🏝️ Catalina Island ($80) – Near Punta Cana, DR, the sealife here was my favorite out of this list. Food & transport is included, with open bar and a buffet! You can get a massage here for an extra charge.

🏝️ Tortuga Island ($125) – Located near San Jose, Costa Rica, this island was so relaxing with plenty of extra activities available to buy like a banana boat ride or snorkeling! Prices range from $5-$20.

🏝️ Islas Ballestas ($139) – Part of a bigger tour from Lima, Peru, this was more of a sightseeing island as we didn’t actually step foot on it. We did 3 other things and transport was included, so it made it worth it, but not worth visiting alone.

Be sure to save!
